Subject: i.MX8MN Errors on 5.6-RC7

I am getting a few errors on the i.MX8MN:

[    0.000368] Failed to get clock for /timer@306a0000
[    0.000380] Failed to initialize '/timer@306a0000': -22
[    7.203447] caam 30900000.caam: Failed to get clk 'ipg': -2
[    7.334741] caam 30900000.caam: Failed to request all necessary clocks
[    7.438651] caam: probe of 30900000.caam failed with error -2
[    7.854193] imx-cpufreq-dt: probe of imx-cpufreq-dt failed with error -2

I was curious to know if anyone else is seeing similar errors.  I
already submitted a proposed fix for a DMA timeout (not shown here)
which matched work already done on i.MX8MQ and i.MX8MM.

I am not seeing huge differences between 8MM and 8MN in the nodes
which address the timer, caam or imx-cpufreq-dt.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to try them.

Fabio,

I tried your ATF suggestion, and it fixed some issues and introduced others:

Anson,

Which board did you try? I just run it on i.MX8MN-EVK board, no such

failure:
I have a board from Beacon EmbeddedWorks based on the i.MX8MN which
is nearly identical to the i.MX8MM which doesn't exhibit any of these errors.

I tried Fabio's suggestion of switching the version of ATF which did fix the
Bluetooth communication errors I was getting, but I didn't show them before.

Unfortunately, I don't have the i.MX8MN-EVK right now, I'm working on
trying to get one.

Can I ask which version of U-Boot and ATF you're using?  I am wondering if I
need to update something else.

I am using our latest u-boot and ATF in NXP internal tree, maybe you can get the
latest release to have a try.

Anson
